Carload bryers specify Laminex!
I-\IRECT orders of Laminex doors-carload after carload-are LJ nowbeing placed by building material dealers throughout the country to insure adequate stocks to meet what experts agree will be a big year for construction.
In less than two years Laminex doors-made by the world's largest door manufacturershave won a nation-wide market. There are two reasons for this: (l) Laminex doors will not shrink, swell or warp. (7) The public, as well as architectsand builders, know this through national advertising featuring the famous Laminexwater test.
I-aminex is made of old-growth Douglas fir-built-up by crossing layers- "lamination"-much different from doors with solid stiles and rails which have no countercheck against warping. By uniting layers under tremendous pressure with waterproof cement, we put amazing strength into Laminex.
Progressive door jobbers everywhere stock Laminex.
